Outside the Mirror Lake World, such a secret art could never be unleashed except in the face of death.
Although it could enhance combat power in a short period, the side effects after the secret art ended were also terrifying.
Besides entering a state of weakness, one's cultivation realm would also greatly decline.
However, in the Mirror Lake World, there were no such restrictions, as death here was not true death.
Yet, this secret art was not exclusive to Bai Qiuhan; his opponent also began to burn his Divine Seal power at this moment.
The battle between the two directly soared from the Divine Venerate realm to the Divine Emperor level.
After a fierce battle, Bai Qiuhan ultimately prevailed, winning a narrow victory.
As soon as Bai Qiuhan's battle ended, Zhan Kuanghu's was also reaching its final stage.
At this moment, Zhan Kuanghu was also fighting fiercely, with both sides unleashing secret arts to forcibly boost their combat power.
The battle eventually concluded with Zhan Kuanghu's victory.
Such a fierce battle thrilled all the onlookers.
Suddenly, Bai Qiuhan and Zhan Kuanghu disappeared. When they reappeared, they were back in their peak condition.
Just then, Divine Venerate Tianmu was seen flying towards Bai Qiuhan's stage.
"This rogue cultivator is going to challenge Bai Qiuhan? Does he possess a top-tier divine artifact?"
"It must be so, otherwise, how would he dare to fight Bai Qiuhan?"
Divine Venerate Tianmu's ascent to the stage shocked everyone.
These people were surprised that a mere rogue cultivator possessed a top-tier divine artifact.
As these people were in shock, Qin Hanchu also flew towards Zhan Kuanghu's stage.
"Look, another rogue cultivator is entering the stage. Didn't he lose to Zhan Kuanghu once before? Is he still not reconciled?"
"Unless he possesses a top-tier divine artifact, even with a hundred chances, it would be difficult for him to defeat Zhan Kuanghu."
"Who do you think these two rogue cultivators will win?"
Seeing Qin Hanchu ascend the stage, Zhan Kuanghu sneered, "What? Still not convinced?"
"I am already clear about your trump cards, so you may not be my opponent," Qin Hanchu said.
Zhan Kuanghu laughed heartily, "Do you have a top-tier divine artifact?"
"Guess," Qin Hanchu opened his hand and took out a mid-tier divine artifact. He neither admitted nor denied it.
Zhan Kuanghu's gaze was somewhat suspicious; he was unsure of Qin Hanchu's trump card.
If Qin Hanchu dared to challenge, did he really have a top-tier divine artifact?
If so, Zhan Kuanghu had to proceed with caution.
Without a top-tier divine artifact, Qin Hanchu was already enough to make Zhan Kuanghu struggle; with a top-tier divine artifact, he would be even more formidable.
"Interesting, these two rogue cultivators are quite anticipated."
"The Feng Hua Banquet has not seen such powerful rogue cultivators in a long time."
The Divine Emperors of Gu Dao Academy discussed.
"I am looking forward to your performance. Take this!"
Zhan Kuanghu let out a roar, lifted his divine axe, and swung it towards Qin Hanchu.
Qin Hanchu waved his mid-grade divine sword, and countless sword energies shot out to meet Zhan Kuanghu's attack.
Amidst booming explosions, Qin Hanchu's attacks were successively repelled.
Just then, a mass of purple mist suddenly exploded.
This purple mist spread with extreme speed, quickly covering the entire stage.
Outsiders could not even see the two figures within the arena!
"This move again?"
"Zhan Kuanghu has already found a way to break it; this is no longer useful."
"Since he is doing this, there must be a deeper meaning."
Outsiders watched curiously at the battlefield between Qin Hanchu and Zhan Kuanghu.
The battlefield was covered by purple mist, making everyone even more curious about what was happening inside.
"Still using such a tactic, do you think it's still useful?"
Zhan Kuanghu once again unleashed the Blood Guiding Demonic Array, and dense attacks surged outwards.
Under the impact of the Blood Guiding Demonic Array, the purple mist churned like the sea.
Outsiders could see the power of the Blood Guiding Demonic Array constantly impacting the stage's barrier, but Qin Hanchu's position remained hidden, as if he had vanished!
Zhan Kuanghu, within the mist, did not expect this. He controlled the Blood Guiding Demonic Array to cover the stage while remaining vigilant for Qin Hanchu's surprise attacks.
Qin Hanchu's purple mist was a Divine Emperor-level divine skill, and ordinary methods could not dispel it.
At this moment, Qin Hanchu stood within the fog, with a circular black hole before him.
Surrounding this black hole were the Five Elements Divine Banners.
The advantage of the Five Elements Divine Banners was not in attack, but in their superior defense and short-distance spatial teleportation.
The short distance mentioned here was relative; with Qin Hanchu's current strength, he could use them to reach tens of thousands of miles away in an instant.
Using the Five Elements Divine Banners' teleportation, Qin Hanchu redirected the attacks of the Blood Guiding Demonic Array elsewhere.
Qin Hanchu followed his usual tactic: he intended to wear down Zhan Kuanghu's divine power using the mist and the Five Elements Divine Banners.
As long as he held the advantage in divine power, Qin Hanchu could win with minimal cost.
"Zhan Kuanghu's counterattack is useless?"
"What's going on?"
"How did he do it?"
"Is it some powerful divine skill?"
"With this mist covering, we can't see anything."
"This mist can block divine sense. Zhan Kuanghu is like a blind man now."
"He is still using the same old tactic, wanting to deplete Zhan Kuanghu's divine power."
"If Zhan Kuanghu cannot dispel the mist, then he can only be passively trapped."
"Since it cannot be blown away, it can be frozen."
"Burning with flames might also work."
What outsiders could think of, Zhan Kuanghu could also think of.
However, Zhan Kuanghu had not cultivated divine flames or ice-element Divine Emperor-level divine skills.
And low-level divine flames and ice-elemental power could not affect the mist.
The power of the Blood Guiding Demonic Array was immense, and correspondingly, it consumed a vast amount of divine power.
Qin Hanchu was not afraid of Zhan Kuanghu continuously activating the Blood Guiding Demonic Array.
Zhan Kuanghu also knew that this situation could not continue. Since this move was no longer effective, he had to stop.
As soon as he dispelled the Blood Guiding Demonic Array, Qin Hanchu launched a sneak attack.
Just like in their previous encounter, his sneak attacks were elusive, forcing Zhan Kuanghu to expend more divine power than Qin Hanchu.
Die!
Qin Hanchu's harassment made Zhan Kuanghu increasingly irritable.
Zhan Kuanghu suddenly flew high into the sky, his divine axe emanating a sinister black mist.
This black mist spread outwards, beginning to push back Qin Hanchu's purple weapon.
As Zhan Kuanghu moved, Qin Hanchu sensed an aura of world-destroying power.
This move was definitely one of Zhan Kuanghu's trump cards.
"The purple mist is being forced back!"
"Zhan Kuanghu's move is so powerful; he didn't use it before."
"That guy is about to be exposed!"
Amidst the crowd's murmurs, more than half of Qin Hanchu's purple mist had been dispelled.
A sky full of black mist surged towards Qin Hanchu.
Zhan Kuanghu's black mist was not mere fog; it contained the killing power of a top-tier divine artifact.
"Die for me!"
In the blink of an eye, the purple mist was reduced to an area of only a few dozen meters.
